Cool Gear Double-Insulated Mason Mug Shipping Delayed
7Whew, check out that topic title! Why did these thing's names have to be so long?
Anyway…due to the SNOWMAGEDDAPOCALYPSPLOSION we've had a delay in receiving these to our warehouse. That means that we can't ship them…because we don't have them yet. If we could ship things we don't physically have we would, but VMP would cost a hell of a lot more to pay for all of the the quantum mechanical whatsits and flux capacitors that would require.
We should get these in early next week and they'll ship ASAP, so don't panic if you don't see tracking updates for these for a while.
Sorry for the delay, but you can't fight the weather.

Can't fight the weather? The hell I can't. I might not win, but I can damn-sure punch a snowman or something!
@capguncowboy Last time I came across a snowman I peed a hole in its head.
@Al_Coholic Brings all new meaning to the song:
@MEHcus Whenever I get a chance to do so, I post an Honest Trailer that is revelant to the discussion.
@MEHcus
As always, it's cute you think they will read this.
@jont Which will we receive first? The meh shirts or these mugs?? :) SNOWMAGEDDAPOCALYPSPLOSION has delayed the Built delivery to my house too.. my husband is going to notice when all the boxes land on the doorstep at once! At least, I fell asleep 1.5 hours into hitting the refresh on the fuku, or that might arrive on the same day too !! :)
@mikibell just got my meh shirts today. Woohoo!
@AnnaB congrats! I am jealous, but I will survive.. Are they as comfy as purported?
@mikibell They are! And I got an extra one, too!
@AnnaB alas, mine wasn't in the mailbox..hoping to intercept it before hubby absconds with the t-shirts :) my son loves the mediocre flask..shh don't tell him it is a ladies size!
That's okay. I've already abandoned my workout regimen. I'll just keep snacks in them.
I'm pretty sure one of my orders in burried under the snow on my back porch. Don't think I'll get it until the spring.
I don't mind the delays as long as everything arrives intact and with enough dunnage.
My drinks will become tepid, curse you meh.
I'm not sure those 36 Contigo cups will last that long as single day use cups ;). You really expect me to use the same glass twice?
Update: the weather continues to fight against us with a passion. These arrived in Chicago which was then promptly hit by a blizzard.
That means that you now won't be receiving these until sometime next week. I'll keep everyone up to date on the thrilling journey of these mugs. Stay tuned.
Why did you have to say anything at all? With all Meh's bragging about slow shipping who would have noticed?
Totally unacceptable! I need my $5 impulse purchase now! Or whenever, really. I forgot I ordered it until I saw the email about delayed shipping.
There's a good chance I could walk over and pick mine up. My work is in the middle here (in fact, look close enough and you might see me waving):
I promise to take random colors.
I ordered these specifically to have warm drinks during the referenced blizzards. As a result of not having my hot cocoa, I have contracted pneumonia. Please update my shipping address to Room 5003 at John Hopkins University Hospital while I battle the meh-induced disease.

I think.......I've lost....the will to..... live.........
@Teripie ........................
@Teripie
I'm willing to wait. However, if you can have a 50" TV here quicker, I'm not saying I would turn down an exchange.
@jballigood Or 30 speakerdocks.
@thenightstar Nooooooo! Please no!
WTF? I really needed these in time for the Superbowl!
Oh, never-mind.
OKAY! Superbowl 50 2016! Woo-hoo!
@Pavlov they'll probably be there before then!
@JonT Awesomesauce! You're invited to the party!
Are they there yet?

As @wrcoder said - I totally and completely forgot I ordered them until I got the email.
NOW though. . . well, NOW they are ALL I CAN THINK ABOUT......
@shubydoo Yeah, I thought "why did they send me this email?"
Oh, right, I did buy that. What a sucker I was!
If I wanted excellent service I would hardly order from Meh. You would disappoint if there was not some type of problem. Love you the way you are. Don't change a thing. Mid august would be just fine with me.
As long as they show up before I get thirsty, we should be okay.
"Thanks for being patient with us - and by us we totally mean Mother Nature in this case"..
Yeah, go ahead and point the blame at someone (in this case mama nature) who can't defend herself.
(seriously, I could wait til the cows come home for the mediocrebot. no problem here)
@unkabob pretty sure @Barney was standing in the middle of the highway stopping the truck. Mother Nature is being wrongly blamed.
@dis_member Yep. Baaa!
@Barney What! And you don't contest? Can you spell: G_O_A_T Barney (☺)
@unkabob B_A_R_N_E_Y goat. Baaaa!
@Barney ... Atta boy...
Are the mugs insulated enough to survive this long in the storm?
HEY - as of today I'm showing a tracking # on my order.... is there something you're not telling us, mehbe? Like - THEY MADE IT??
@shubydoo I received an email today that my order shipped!
Mine is with in 500 miles! Might make it soon. But who knows considering it snows 20 inches a day here...
Got mine today. I think I may have to contact customer service with one of them. But the others look good. I need to check them all though. I took out the 1 purple one to get it washed so I can use it. (also got 2 blue, 2 red and 1 brown). My brown one comes completely apart, which doesn't seem like it should happen. So yeah, I need to check the rest, snap a pic or 2 and let them know.
@remo28 I ordered 2 (got 1 blue and 1 red). The red one is broken where the inside portion and the lid come away from the double wall completely. I've emailed CS, but got a response saying they are "overloaded".
@shyxgrl That's exactly what is wrong with my brown one. The double wall separates.
@remo28 @shyxgrl That is the same problem with two of my four, these look as though they were subject to some really rough handling or the quality is just that poor. I've emailed support also.
@Pavlov @remo28 CS emailed me back today requesting photos so make sure to take some!
@shyxgrl Yup. Will wait for their email. Thx.
I ordered 2 pairs to ensure that I got one purple and one brown because "No repeat colors if you order one or two pairs. No promises with three pairs". Got 2 red and 2 blue:
I have already contacted CS, this is just an informational post.
I forgot to blame @Barney.
@Headly Aww, no purple?
@Barney You would get along with my wife. She LOVES purple. She was sad.
@Headly I will trade you a purple/brown combo for another blue/red if CS doesn't have any left. Not saying I don't like purple, but what do I care what color my coffee cup is? I am the only person who drinks coffee in my house, so all colors/cups are mine :)
@mikibell That's awesome! I may take you up on that. I will wait for a response from CS. really, We have like 30 or 40 coffee mugs, etc. (like 15 from Disneyland) and that's in addition to the 12 (regular) ones that came with the stoneware and the other 8 that go with the china. So I only like to get things that we really want. New cups mean something in the cabinet has to go to good will, because there ain't no more room!
@Headly I ordered 2x 2packs and got no brown, I got 2 blues instead. I'm not sure that is a bad thing.
@thismyusername Brown and orange are my favorite colors. Blue is so... common. What can brown do for you?
@mikibell Thanks for the offer. CS says they have none left (I shall be monitoring the next fuku!) After looking at the shipping costs, meh. I don't want to turn $3 sippy cups into $15 sippy cups.
@Headly okee dokee.. :)
Got my 3 pair and I'm very pleased. All survived shipping. I got 1 brown, 1 purple, 2 red, and 2 turquoise. Looks they were shipped in the unopened box from the factory.
Thanks Meh, now I can get rid of that cupboard full of crappy dollar store ones.
@Teripie I love purple.
Arrived this afternoon. All 6 intact. Appears that the unopened box from the factory is 2 red, 2 blue, 1 brown, and 1 ... wait for it @Barney... purple. Nothing to complain about. (damn)
@Mehrocco_Mole I love purple!
